Tag: Secret Weapon Miniatures

As the week continues along, we get ever-closer back to that beloved weekend. Still have half the week to get through, though. And if we’re gonna make it, we should stock up on some bite-sized gaming stories.

Today on the platter we have: New Bases Available From Secret Weapon Miniatures, New Classic Movie Minis Available To Order From Sally 4th, Dark Art Studios Announces Devil’s Dungeon II Project, Warsaw Uprising 1944 28mm Figures by Infamous JT Up On Kickstarter, and Legendary Metal Coins Season 3 Live on Kickstarter.

Gee. Halfway through the week already? It’s just flying on by. But such is the case, apparently. Man, maybe the whole year will go by this quick. What? It’s 2145 already? … oh, wait, no it’s not. Damn. I guess we’ll just munch on these bite-sized gaming stories as we wait for 2145 to get here.

Today on the platter we have: Secret Weapon Miniatures Previews New Bases, New Mousepad Dice Trays From Deep-Cut Studio, and New Orc Banner Bearer Available From Kromlech.

The week continues along. This has been a pretty good one, I must say. My new dicecame in. So I’m happy about that. We’re also getting ever-closer to the weekend. I’m making plans not only for Saturday gaming, but hopefully a regular RP here at the office starting next week. So that should be fun. But, in the meantime, let’s get your gaming tables looking good.

Today in the Terrain Corner we have: New Sci-Fi Terrain Available From Battle Systems, and Volkano Gaming Mat Available From Pwork Wargame.

Yes, we had a combined Terrain Corner/Snippets yesterday. I wanted to make sure that any terrain articles I had didn’t wait another day after Gen Con to be posted. That doesn’t mean there haven’t been a couple terrain articles come in since then. So here we are again, making sure your gaming tables look as good as possible.

Seeing as how Monday I was in a car for about 13-14 hours, I didn’t get a chance to do the regular Terrain Corner piece. So, much as I did Friday, with the combined Snippets/Terrain Corner post, I’m giving you another of those today. Gotta catch back up from Gen Con.

So, it’s coming up to 8pm. Day 2 is definitely in the books for Gen Con 2016. It’s been a very busy day. I’m tired, but still pretty amped about everything that’s gone on. And I’m sure you all would like to know about some of it. There’s been about a billion things to see. So, relatively, here’s a rather small percentage. More will come tomorrow.Continue reading →

Hello Thursday. How are you? I’m doing well. It’s a bit warm out, but what’re you to expect for July in Atlanta? Best to just stay inside where it’s cool and do some gaming. And if you’re going to do some gaming, you’ll want your gaming tables to look as good as possible. How do you do that? By checking out our Terrain Corner.

For quite a while now, gamers have enjoyed the different washes available from Secret Weapon Miniatures. There’s also been the weathering pigment powders, too. Both of these sets of products really has helped pro and amateur painters alike really step up their painting game. Well, now Secret Weapon is helping step up even more.Continue reading →

Secret Weapon Miniatures and Dark Art Miniatures (Secrets of the Dark Art Weapons Miniatures?) are running themselves a little contest. They are looking to promote the possibilities of the Malice RPG line by giving you a chance to win some terrain. Everyone likes terrain. All you have to do is write a little story.Continue reading →

Comin’ down the mountaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaain! *guitar, guitar, guitar* Seeing as that’s what Ray and I were just talking about that, and we are sliding down the mountain towards the weekend. Because segue! Mountains can also be used as terrain for your minis games. Because another segue! Add those all up and we’ve got Thursday’s Terrain Corner.

It’s Sunday. Here in the States, it’s Father’s Day. If you are a father, hope you have a great Father’s Day. If you’re not a father, I still hope you have a great day, regardless. As for me, I’m sitting here at the start of the last day of CMON Expo 2015. It’s been a great time. Very busy, lots of panels yesterday. I hope you enjoyed the reports of all the new stuff. I’ll get you a link to the other photo collections here in a minute from yesterday, and there will be some more today.

But anyway, for the moment, we’re getting together the bite-sized stories we’ve come across in the past couple days.

Secret Weapon Miniatures is well-known for their bases, bits, and washes and pigments. But they want to help you with every aspect of your game’s aesthetics, including the surface you’re playing on. That’s where their line of Tablescape Tiles comes in. Originally funded through Kickstarter, the tiles are now available in their webshop.

Mr. Justin over at SWM sent me four tiles from their first production run to check out.

So get yourself prepped for another TGN Review. This time it’s Tablescapes Terrain Tiles from Secret Weapon Miniatures. Continue reading →

Secret Weapon Miniatures knows that holiday meals can sometimes disagree with people’s intestinal bacteria and they can go a bit crazy. So they’ve got Santa Gas Masks heads now available so your little mans can breathe easy after those big meals.

This is a special, limited edition holiday release — our classic gas mask head swaps, with five different Santa hats. These are due into the warehouse at the top of next week, and will only be on sale through January.

Here it is, a complete 4×6′ table made entirely of injection molded plastic Tablescapes Tiles ™ — of course the factory didn’t bother to send me tile clips with the test shots, so there are some gaps between the tiles. Otherwise this was set up on the gaming table we have in the warehouse… and it’s awesome.

When “misterjustin” goes on the road to teach classes, he often uses these sticks so that folks can practice the techniques without focusing on a full models. We’ve had so many requests to make them available outside of his classes that we’re now offering them for direct sale.

Each set includes multiple textures and surfaces to work with, including male and female torsos, faces, cloth, fur, leather, metal, bricks, gems, and more!

This product is sold unpainted and should be washed in cool, soapy water prior to painting.

Looking for some Tank Obstacles? Or perhaps some new bricks to lay down and change up your bases? There are 18 new products in the Secret Weapon Miniatures Store and we cant wait to see what you create!
